fa9b480d54 msvc: define O_ACCMODE
This constant is not defined in MSVC's headers.

In UCRT's fcntl.h, _O_RDONLY, _O_WRONLY and _O_RDWR are defined as 0, 1
and 2, respectively. Yes, that means that UCRT breaks with the tradition
that O_RDWR == O_RDONLY | O_WRONLY.

It is a perfectly legal way to define those constants, though, therefore
we need to take care of defining O_ACCMODE accordingly.

This is particularly important in order to keep our "open() can set
errno to EISDIR" emulation working: it tests that (flags & O_ACCMODE) is
not identical to O_RDONLY before going on to test specifically whether
the file for which open() reported EACCES is, in fact, a directory.

dda43c426e msvc: add NuGet scripts for building with VS2015
This commit contains a GNU Makefile and NuGet configuration scripts to
download and install the various third-party libraries that we will need
to build/link with when using VS2015 to build Git.

The file "compat/vcbuild/README_VS2015.txt" contains instructions for
using this.

In this commit, "compat/vcbuild/Makefile" contains hard-coded version
numbers of the packages we require.  These are set to the current
versions as of the time of this commit.  We use "nuget restore" to
install them explicitly using a "package.config".  A future improvement
would try to use some of the automatic package management functions and
eliminate the need to specify exact versions.  I tried, but could not
get this to work.  NuGet was happy dowload "minimum requirements" rather
than "lastest" for dependencies -- and only look at one package at a
time.  For example, both curl and openssl depend upon zlib and have
different minimums.  It was unclear which version of zlib would be
installed and seemed to be dependent on the order of the top-level
packages.  So, I'm skipping that for now.

We need to be very precise when specifying NuGet package versions: while
nuget.exe auto-completes a version, say, 1.0.2 to 1.0.2.0, we will want
to parse packages.config ourselves, to generate the Visual Studio
solution, and there we need the exact version number to be able to
generate the exact path to the correct .targets file.

57b3091e3f Win32: implement nanosecond-precision file times
We no longer use any of MSVCRT's stat-functions, so there's no need to
stick to a CRT-compatible 'struct stat' either.

Define and use our own POSIX-2013-compatible 'struct stat' with nanosecond-
precision file times.

Note: Due to performance issues when using git variants with different file
time resolutions, this patch does *not* yet enable nanosecond precision in
the Makefile (use 'make USE_NSEC=1').

b1900829e4 The stat() function should be independent of core.symlinks
The contract for the stat() and lstat() function is:
> stat():  stats the file pointed to by path and fills in buf.
> lstat(): is identical to stat(), except that if path is a symbolic link,
>          then the link itself is stat-ed, not the file that it refers to.

stat() should always return the statistics of the file or directory a
symbolic link is pointing to. The lstat() function is used to get the
stats for the symlink. Hence the check should not be there.

1317f3fb88 mingw: keep trailing slashes for _wchdir() and readlink()
This is needed so that `_wchdir()` can be used with drive root
directories, e.g. C:\ (`_wchdir("C:")` fails to switch the directory
to the root directory).

This fixes https://github.com/msysgit/git/issues/359 (in Git for Windows
2.x only, though).

Likewise, `readlink()`'s semantics require a trailing slash for symbolic
links pointing to directories. Otherwise all checked out symbolic links
pointing to directories would be marked as modified even directly after a
fresh clone.

This fixes https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/210

b80b533e73 Win32: symlink: add support for symlinks to directories
Symlinks on Windows have a flag that indicates whether the target is a file
or a directory. Symlinks of wrong type simply don't work. This even affects
core Win32 APIs (e.g. DeleteFile() refuses to delete directory symlinks).

However, CreateFile() with FILE_FLAG_BACKUP_SEMANTICS doesn't seem to care.
Check the target type by first creating a tentative file symlink, opening
it, and checking the type of the resulting handle. If it is a directory,
recreate the symlink with the directory flag set.

It is possible to create symlinks before the target exists (or in case of
symlinks to symlinks: before the target type is known). If this happens,
create a tentative file symlink and postpone the directory decision: keep
a list of phantom symlinks to be processed whenever a new directory is
created in mingw_mkdir().

Limitations: This algorithm may fail if a link target changes from file to
directory or vice versa, or if the target directory is created in another
process.

ac1c93027c Win32: mingw_chdir: change to symlink-resolved directory

as required by POSIX.

Note: Git's real_path() function bases its link resolution algorithm on
this property of chdir(). Unfortunately, the current directory on Windows
is limited to only MAX_PATH (260) characters. Therefore using symlinks and
long paths in combination may be problematic.

8c3f3bfc90 Win32: change default of 'core.symlinks' to false
Symlinks on Windows don't work the same way as on Unix systems. E.g. there
are different types of symlinks for directories and files, creating
symlinks requires administrative privileges etc.

By default, disable symlink support on Windows. I.e. users explicitly have
to enable it with 'git config [--system|--global] core.symlinks true'.

The test suite ignores system / global config files. Allow testing *with*
symlink support by checking if native symlinks are enabled in MSys2 (via
'MSYS=winsymlinks:nativestrict').

Reminder: This would need to be changed if / when we find a way to run the
test suite in a non-MSys-based shell (e.g. dash).

e52b82c72a Win32: factor out retry logic
The retry pattern is duplicated in three places. It also seems to be too
hard to use: mingw_unlink() and mingw_rmdir() duplicate the code to retry,
and both of them do so incompletely. They also do not restore errno if the
user answers 'no'.

Introduce a retry_ask_yes_no() helper function that handles retry with
small delay, asking the user, and restoring errno.

file is locked exclusively).

mingw_rmdir: include special error handling in the retry loop.

58e205b523 Win32: lstat(): return adequate stat.st_size for symlinks
Git typically doesn't trust the stat.st_size member of symlinks (e.g. see
strbuf_readlink()). However, some functions take shortcuts if st_size is 0
(e.g. diff_populate_filespec()).

In mingw_lstat() and fscache_lstat(), make sure to return an adequate size.

the exact size is not necessary, as git doesn't rely on the value anyway.

874a1a53fd Win32: let mingw_lstat() error early upon problems with reparse points
When obtaining lstat information for reparse points, we need to call
FindFirstFile() in addition to GetFileInformationEx() to obtain the type
of the reparse point (symlink, mount point etc.). However, currently there
is no error handling whatsoever if FindFirstFile() fails.

Call FindFirstFile() before modifying the stat *buf output parameter and
error out if the call fails.

Note: The FindFirstFile() return value includes all the data that we get
from GetFileAttributesEx(), so we could replace GetFileAttributesEx() with
FindFirstFile(). We don't do that because GetFileAttributesEx() is about
twice as fast for single files. I.e. we only pay the extra cost of calling
FindFirstFile() in the rare case that we encounter a reparse point.

Note: The indentation of the remaining reparse point code will be fixed in
the next patch.

5d092057e4 Win32: implement stat() with symlink support
With respect to symlinks, the current stat() implementation is almost the
same as lstat(): except for the file type (st_mode & S_IFMT), it returns
information about the link rather than the target.

Implement stat by opening the file with as little permissions as possible
and calling GetFileInformationByHandle on it. This way, all link resoltion
is handled by the Windows file system layer.

If symlinks are disabled, use lstat() as before, but fail with ELOOP if a
symlink would have to be resolved.

1ac934e9b5 Windows: force-recompile git.res for differing architectures

Therefore, to allow 32-bit and 64-bit builds in the same directory, we
let git.res depend on GIT-PREFIX so that it gets recompiled when
compiling for a different architecture (this works because the exec path
changes based on the architecture: /mingw32/libexec/git-core for 32-bit
and /mingw64/libexec/git-core for 64-bit).

69d86d4152 compat/terminal.c: only use the Windows console if bash 'read -r' fails
Accessing the Windows console through the special CONIN$ / CONOUT$ devices
doesn't work properly for non-ASCII usernames an passwords.

It also doesn't work for terminal emulators that hide the native console
window (such as mintty), and 'TERM=xterm*' is not necessarily a reliable
indicator for such terminals.

The new shell_prompt() function, on the other hand, works fine for both
MSys1 and MSys2, in native console windows as well as mintty, and properly
supports Unicode. It just needs bash on the path (for 'read -s', which is
bash-specific).

On Windows, try to use the shell to read from the terminal. If that fails
with ENOENT (i.e. bash was not found), use CONIN/OUT as fallback.

Note: To test this, create a UTF-8 credential file with non-ASCII chars,
e.g. in git-bash: 'echo url=http://täst.com > cred.txt'. Then in git-cmd,
'git credential fill <cred.txt' works (shell version), while calling git
without the git-wrapper (i.e. 'mingw64\bin\git credential fill <cred.txt')
mangles non-ASCII chars in both console output and input.

a99e803969 mingw: Support git_terminal_prompt with more terminals
The `git_terminal_prompt()` function expects the terminal window to be
attached to a Win32 Console. However, this is not the case with terminal
windows other than `cmd.exe`'s, e.g. with MSys2's own `mintty`.

Non-cmd terminals such as `mintty` still have to have a Win32 Console
to be proper console programs, but have to hide the Win32 Console to
be able to provide more flexibility (such as being resizeable not only
vertically but also horizontally). By writing to that Win32 Console,
`git_terminal_prompt()` manages only to send the prompt to nowhere and
to wait for input from a Console to which the user has no access.

This commit introduces a function specifically to support `mintty` -- or
other terminals that are compatible with MSys2's `/dev/tty` emulation. We
use the `TERM` environment variable as an indicator for that: if the value
starts with "xterm" (such as `mintty`'s "xterm_256color"), we prefer to
let `xterm_prompt()` handle the user interaction.

The most prominent user of `git_terminal_prompt()` is certainly
`git-remote-https.exe`. It is an interesting use case because both
`stdin` and `stdout` are redirected when Git calls said executable, yet
it still wants to access the terminal.

When running inside a `mintty`, the terminal is not accessible to the
`git-remote-https.exe` program, though, because it is a MinGW program
and the `mintty` terminal is not backed by a Win32 console.

To solve that problem, we simply call out to the shell -- which is an
*MSys2* program and can therefore access `/dev/tty`.

35f0cdb3f0 mingw: HOT FIX: work around environment issues -- again
This developer should really, really have known better. The fact that we
are changing the environment in ways for which the MSVCRT is not
prepared for is bad enough. But then this developer followed the request
to re-enable nedmalloc -- despite the prediction that it would cause an
access violation, predicting it in the same message as the request to
re-enable nedmalloc, no less!

To paper over the issue until the time when this developer finds the
time to re-design the Unicode environment handling from scratch, let's
hope that cURL is the only library we are using that *may* set an
environment variable using MSVCRT's putenv() after we fscked the
environment up.

Note: this commit can serve as no source of pride to anyone, certainly
not yours truly. It is necessary as a quick and pragmatic stop gap,
though, to prevent worse problems.

Note: cURL manages to set the variable CHARSET when nedmalloc is *not*
enabled, without causing an access violation. In that case, it sets it
successfully to the value "cp" + GetACP() (hence it is our choice, too,
cURL may need it, Git does not):

aad094ff9d gettext: always use UTF-8 on native Windows
Git on native Windows exclusively uses UTF-8 for console output (both with
mintty and native console windows). Gettext uses setlocale() to determine
the output encoding for translated text, however, MSVCRT's setlocale()
doesn't support UTF-8. As a result, translated text is encoded in system
encoding (GetAPC()), and non-ASCII chars are mangled in console output.

Use gettext's bind_textdomain_codeset() to force the encoding to UTF-8 on
native Windows.

In this developers' setup, HAVE_LIBCHARSET_H is apparently defined, but
we *really* want to override the locale_charset() here.

fb755bf02d Avoid illegal filenames when building Documentation on NTFS
A '+' is not a valid part of a filename with Windows file systems (it is
reserved because the '+' operator meant file concatenation back in the
DOS days).

Let's just not use it.

8b017e7b62 mingw: be *very* wary about outside environment changes
The environment is modified in most surprising circumstances, and not
all of them are under Git's control. For example, calling
curl_global_init() on Windows will ensure that the CHARSET variable is
set, adding one if necessary.

While the previous commit worked around crashes triggered by such
outside changes of the environment by relaxing the requirement that the
environment be terminated by a NULL pointer, the other assumption made
by `mingw_getenv()` and `mingw_putenv()` is that the environment is
sorted, for efficient lookup via binary search.

Let's make real sure that our environment is intact before querying or
modifying it, and reinitialize our idea of the environment if necessary.

With this commit, before working on the environment we look briefly for
indicators that the environment was modified outside of our control, and
to ensure that it is terminated with a NULL pointer and sorted again in
that case.

Note: the indicators are maybe not sufficient. For example, when a
variable is removed, it will not be noticed. It might also be a problem
if outside changes to the environment result in a modified `environ`
pointer: it is unclear whether such a modification could result in a
problem when `mingw_putenv()` needs to `realloc()` the environment
buffer.

For the moment, however, the current fix works well enough, so let's
only face the potential problems when (and if!) they occur.

5bc92155e1 mingw: be more defensive when making the environment block
Outside of our Windows-specific code, the end of the environment can be
marked also by a pointer to a NUL character, not only by a NULL pointer
as our code assumed so far.

That led to a buffer overrun in `make_environment_block()` when running
`git-remote-https` in `mintty` (because `curl_global_init()` added the
`CHARSET` environment variable *outside* of `mingw_putenv()`, ending the
environment in a pointer to an empty string).

Side note for future debugging on Windows: when running programs in
`mintty`, the standard input/output/error is not connected to a Win32
Console, but instead is pipe()d. That means that even stderr may not be
written completely before a crash, but has to be fflush()ed explicitly.
For example, when debugging crashes, the developer should insert an
`fflush(stderr);` at the end of the `error()` function defined in
usage.c.

c6098c4134 UTF-8 environment: be a little bit more defensive
It is unlikely that we have an empty environment, ever, but *if* we do,
when `environ_size - 1` is passed to `bsearchenv()` it is misinterpreted
as a real large integer.

To make the code truly defensive, refuse to do anything at all if the
size is negative (which should not happen, of course).

fba89d3dda mingw: enable stack smashing protector
As suggested privately to Brendan Forster by some unnamed person
(suggestion for the future: use the public mailing list, or even the
public GitHub issue tracker, that is a much better place to offer such
suggestions), we should make use of gcc's stack smashing protector that
helps detect stack buffer overruns early.

Rather than using -fstack-protector, we use -fstack-protector-strong
because it strikes a better balance between how much code is affected
and the performance impact.

In a local test (time git log --grep=is -p), best of 5 timings went from
23.009s to 22.997s (i.e. the performance impact was *well* lost in the
noise).

This fixes https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/501
